guitarchump Posted July 19, 2004 Report Share Posted July 19, 2004 I was hoping someone here would know of any places that sold fake shell or cheep substitutes. I need them to practice inlay techniques with so I don’t have to be burning a hole in my wallet in the learning stages Also; Calvin could you show me where I could get a router base for a fordom flexshaft. I don’t know if the stewmac one will fit a fordom flexshaft. Maybe telling me what you use will be the best bet because it sounds like what you have works well. So if you could kindly take the time to list off what you use and where to get it I would appreciate it so very much and I mean very much!

tdog Posted July 19, 2004 Report Share Posted July 19, 2004 Try knife makers supply houses for some composite material.....sheffiedsupply.com or texasknife.com......it still is not that cheap. There are also a few guys on ebay that sell some nice composite. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clavin Posted July 19, 2004 Report Share Posted July 19, 2004 Who's Calvin? I assume you mean C Lavin my user name I got my router base for my Fordom from Stew-Mac. They make one to fit the flex shaft. Call them for details, or go to their site. Craig Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lmmr Posted July 19, 2004 Report Share Posted July 19, 2004 how about a CD? has anyone ever tried to inlay one of these? can it be cut with a jeweler's saw as an inlay? i guess there's only way to find out... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Devon Headen Posted July 19, 2004 Report Share Posted July 19, 2004 I've tried CD before..Not really working for me. Maybe with a better quality CD it would work, but the refelctive shiny part peeled off when I would cut the disc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
